Nosebleeds: Causes and Solutions for Retail Worker (20F)
I am 20F. Since May, I started a new job in May (retail part time as a student). I've been having nosebleeds since then. During summer it was worse when i was working many many hrs, where it happened alongside dizziness and headaches. Its recently happening again on and off since May- sometimes due to stress and dehydration , dust, allergies and the flu (dont know exact cause). It always come from one nostril.

Nosebleeds happen, especially with stress, lack of fluids, or breathing in dust and allergens. One nostril bleeding is usually no biggie. Try drinking more water, avoiding dusty spaces, and using a humidifier. But if it won't quit, best to have a doctor check it.

Systematic increases in immature granulocytes Good morning, Firstly, I will mention that I suffer from numerous chronic inflammatory diseases, as this may be relevant. These include Ulcerative Proctitis; Atrophic Gastritis; Last year, I also underwent two cervical electrosurgery procedures due to advanced dysplasia (CIN3). (The last colposcopy and colonoscopy did not reveal any suspicious changes) For a year now, my blood morphology tests have been showing an elevated level of immature granulocytes: The latest test (May '24) showed: Immature granulocytes IG - 0.09 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 1.00; Norm: 0-0.5% The rest of the blood morphology is normal, leukocytes in urine - within the norm. Previous results (April '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.05 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.7; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV) Even older (January '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.04 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.6; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV and basophils) There is a clear upward trend since last year. I initially thought this was due to extreme stress (CIN3, LLETZ etc). Now I am not so sure... Are these results very concerning and indicative of a cancerous process? Can chronic inflammatory states cause an increase in IG, or is it rather some kind of “acute” disease state? Could the fact that I rode a bike to the laboratory (medium and short-term physical effort) affect the increase in results? I would be very grateful for your response and advice. Best regards, J.

Raised levels of these are often linked to chronic inflammation similar to stress, in this case, it is important to control them initially. With the status of attempted diagnosis for specific inflammatory conditions, your previous experience, and the new procedures on the lookout for anything new, don't hesitate to let a doctor know. It would be helpful to get solid advice from your healthcare provider concerning your test results.

Bhcg level drop from 389 to 280 after 2 days
Female | 29
A rapid drop in bhCG levels, from 389 to 280 in just two days, can be concerning. It might indicate cramping, bleeding, or even a miscarriage. However, don't panic yet—additional tests are needed. Keep your doctor informed about any new symptoms, and they will guide you on the appropriate monitoring and next steps.

I went to general check and blood test. I got CEA test level 8.16 I don't smoke or drink. Reason for it. Is it normal
Male | 55
CEA stands for Carcinoembryonic Antigen, a protein produced in the body, and the levels of it in the body may be high because of different causes such as inflammation or infection. Usual symptoms are unusual with a slight increase in CEA levels, but further tests and monitoring are also often necessary. It’s important to visit your healthcare provider to find out the exact reasons for your condition and the best ways to fight it.

I'm depressed that is I'm hiv positive pls help me
Male | 19
If you have recently been diagnosed with HIV, it is quite normal to feel low. Symptoms of HIV include fever, sore throat, and being more tired than usual. The virus makes the immune system weaker, so the body cannot fight infections easily. Always, keep the thought in your mind that HIV is treatable with the help of medications. Medicines can indeed assist you in leading a healthy life. Discuss with your doctor initiating medication and going to support groups.

With thalassemia, you often feel constantly tired and weak, and your skin appears pale. Though Ayurveda won't cure thalassemia, some practices like herbal remedies and yoga could help you feel better overall. Still, your doctor needs to oversee managing this lifelong disorder properly.

Is it normal to feel weak and loss of appetite after a week of getting treatment of Bilharzia.
Male | 34
After treatment for Bilharzia, feeling weak and losing appetite is common. Medicines used can cause these side effects. Weakness happens as the body fights infection. Drink lots of water and eat healthy foods, despite no appetite. If symptoms worsen or persist, inform your healthcare provider.

Understandably, you’re feeling anxious, but swollen lymph nodes can happen for many reasons, like infections or inflammation. Since your blood tests showed an increase in lymphocytes and low neutrophils, it's important to follow up with a hematologist or ENT specialist to rule out any serious conditions and get a proper diagnosis. They can help guide you further, so don’t hesitate to visit them for a detailed checkup.

Today morning toilet time red blood coming which problem name what is solved sir/Medam
Male | 31
If you saw red blood when you went to the toilet this morning, it might be due to hemorrhoids. These are engorged blood veins in the rectum or anus. Such signs are as follows: bloody stool, pain around the anus, and itching. It is suggested to increase water intake, include fiber in your diet, and avoid lifting heavy things during bowel movements.. In case the bleeding still occurs or if you have extreme pain, it is necessary to make an appointment with a gastroenterologist to diagnose the causes and find the proper treatment.

Yesterday my nose is blood bleeding and today is feeling discomfort.
Female | 24
Your nosebleed yesterday likely irritated. Dry air and nose picking often trigger nosebleeds. The discomfort today might stem from that irritation. Using a humidifier adds moisture, which can help. Avoid picking your nose too. If issues persist, consult a doctor.

I had a sex contact and took Hive test on 25th Jan. Non-reactive (Feb-2) Next test (Feb-28) and LIST test (May-02) Non-reactive - now should I test?
Male | 32
A "non-reactive" result indicates that the test did not detect HIV antibodies or antigens in your blood at the time of testing. And you have consistently received non-reactive results over a span of a few months. However, for definitive advice regarding testing intervals and your specific situation, it's essential to consult a professional who specializes in sexual health or infectious disease

Male | 10
Based on the CBC report for your son, it reads that his red blood cell count is elevated. Sometimes, this leads to headaches. The other test results yield normal values, which is a positive thing! In my opinion, a doctor's consultation is necessary to delve more into the issue of an elevated RBC count and the occasional headaches, ensuring that the child receives proper treatment.

Hi.. I'm always struggling with being very skinny and I can't gain weight and my iron level always drops, I did blood analysis and everything was good except iron level. I reached many doctors and they gave up because the diagnosis still dim ????. Thanks in advance doctor .
Female | 24
The typical symptoms of iron defusion consist of fatigue, weakness, and trouble gaining weight. The most prevalent cause of low iron is that you don't get enough of it in your diet. Iron-rich foods such as red meat, beans, and green leaves can do a good help. Besides consuming iron supplements, which should be prescribed by a doctor, one will also be able to improve one's iron levels. Don't forget to see your doctor to get more directions.

It is most probable that you have Iron Deficiency Anemia. This is where your blood could be short of healthy red blood cells. Being a little anemic, tiredness, paleness, and shortness of breath may appear. Ingesting foods that are packed with iron such as spinach, meat, and beans can be of great help to this client. Another piece of advice may deal with more iron supplements, they will. Follow the suggestions given by the medical doctor to recover completely.

One person has a cut on his hand . It was bleeding. I ate food from his hand. If that person is hiv positive. Does it transfer to me??
Female | 48
HIV is primarily transferred through some body fluids like blood. If someone with a cut on their hand eats saliva-containing food, the saliva does not carry enough virus to infect you. Being cautious will make sure to see out for symptoms include flu-like illness and talk to your doctor if you are concerned.
